“They’re doing an investigation and we support their decision, which is until they have the root cause of what happened, we need to put safety first,” she said.
To that end, Hook took possession of some giant Olympic rings and Paralympic agitos at Salisbury-based businesses Bailey Print Group on Tuesday. In Latin, “agito” means “I move”.“Being able to display the rings and agitos is a privilege of being a host city, a host region as we are in a host nation.“I just hope it’s a way to connect and think about what’s coming. Think about the movement, what the meaning behind these symbols is, and hopefully how everybody can be part of this.
“The Australian Olympic Committee has the right to these and you’ll see them on many of their activations and where the athletes are out and about,” she said.
